Re: emacs-w3m can't send post data to the form which has a form with 'enctype=multipart/form'.

Hi,
We're sorry for a late response. Persons who are familiar with
forms seem to be busy now. Though I'm not well informed to
forms, I seem to have solved the problem. Please try the CVS
version.

Emacswiki specifies the "get" method for "multipart/form-data",
however RFC2070 recommends to use the "post" method as follows:
5.2. Form submission
[...]
The best solution is to use the "multipart/form-data" media type
described in [RFC1867] with the POST method of form submission.
And the cause of the problem is that emacs-w3m cannot send such
data using the "get" method. I've modified w3m-form.el so as to
use the "post" method in such a case.
